Answer 2

Answer- The above question is from the chapter 'Atoms and Molecules'.

Let's know what atomicity is.

Atomicity- Number of atoms that constitute a molecule is called as its atomicity.

For example-

Molecules of some elements like: Helium(He) are made up of one atom. So, it is a mono-atomic molecule.

One molecule of Hydrogen contains two atoms of hydrogen and thus, it is diatomic molecule.

One molecule of HCl is made up of two atoms: 1 atom of Hydrogen and 1 atom of Chlorine. HCl is a diatomic molecule.

Given question: What is the atomicity of P₄?

Answer: One molecule of phosphorus contains 4 atoms.

So, atomicity of P₄ = 4.
